But her creativity does not stop just here!

Taylor has also become something of a social media favorite, or at least a favorite WAG. During Game 4 of the World Series, she turned Dodger Stadium literally into her runway. Fans couldn’t stop talking about her take on the “Canadian tuxedo,” which was a stylish denim-on-denim look, and it went viral after the Blue Jays’ 6-2 win over the Dodgers.

Do Kevin and Taylor Gausman Have Children?

Yes, Kevin Gausman and Taylor Gausman do have children, and the ace actually lights up whenever he talks about them.

The sight of Kevin crouched behind the home plate with Sutton in his arms did melt the hearts of baseball watchers everywhere.

But being a dad has maybe changed Gausman and given him a new outlook on life. Talking about fatherhood, he had said, “It puts more perspective into my life… We don’t see our kids very often… It’s hard, especially for our wives. But it helps me realize this is just a game. That puts things into perspective.”

And when Gausman has tough times, his daughter reminds him what truly matters in the end. “They don’t care if I pitched badly—they don’t treat me any differently. You can’t really say that about everybody else.”

Kevin Gausman and Taylor’s Life Away from Baseball

When Gausman first signed his five-year deal with the Toronto Blue Jays in 2021, he and his wife both decided it was time to finally set some roots down. They then decided to settle in midtown Toronto. Why? Well, they loved the parks, trails, and also the family-friendly streets. “The more we’ve gotten to know the neighborhood, the more we love it,” Kevin said.

Their off-season home is in Louisiana, but summers are all about Toronto for them—a balance that works brilliantly for the family of four.

Together, Kevin and Taylor Gausman are more than just a baseball couple; they are an example of what balance, love, and partnership should look like.
